🤿 A Unique Underwater Adventure

Spearfishing in Lombok is not just about fishing; it’s often described as an immersive way to experience the ocean’s biodiversity. It requires skill, patience, and specialized equipment. Unlike recreational fishing, spearfishing is a selective method of hunting, which, when done responsibly, is considered a sustainable practice.

📜 Rules and Conservation

The local authorities have implemented strict rules to protect the marine ecosystem. These regulations are a key part of the experience and are enforced by local guides.

  • Protected Species: It is strictly forbidden to hunt certain species. These include Parrotfish (known locally as Ikan Kakatua or Lembain), Angelfish (Angke), and specific types of rays .

  • Environmental Protection: Divers are strictly prohibited from stepping on or touching the coral reefs. This rule is crucial for preserving the fragile underwater habitat that marine life depends on .
